A Pennsylvania pastor who was caught sitting in a parked car with a bound and naked man insists he was simply counseling the man.
While answering a call about a suspicious vehicle, police discovered a naked man tied up with nylon rope sitting in the front seat of a car parked outside of a home. In the backseat was 61-year-old George Nelson Gregory, a preacher at the Waterfront Christian Community Church. When officers inquired about the situation, Gregory allegedly told them he and the man “were just playing” and that they “meet up from time to time to play with each other.”
The naked man confirmed whatever they were doing was consensual, and Gregory appeared to believe they were in a private setting despite being parked on a well-lit public street in view of multiple homes. According to him, police approached the vehicle because they thought someone inside was unconscious.
“I have nothing to hide. I did nothing wrong,” Gregory said. “I was counseling a young man with a drug problem. It did turn strange, but it wasn’t my doing, OK? And I was adamant that I’m participating in that way. And so that’s when the police pulled up, and they assume things, but I’m standing by my story. It’s not true.”
He added that he and his wife have been attempting to help the man for years and said, “I won’t deny that he began to take his clothes off and propositioned me, but I will deny, on a stack of Bibles with God as my witness, that I did nothing.”
Both Gregory and the naked man will receive a summons for open lewdness and indecent exposure. However, the pastor disputes the accusations on the basis that he himself was not naked at the time.

It's gotten to the point that if somebody's small business has an AOL email address, I immediately look elsewhere for service.
Ain't it a little COLD outside to be sitting around nekkid?
Note: "naked" means no clothes on, whereas "nekkid" means no clothes on and looking for trouble.
In any case, I think we're talking Major League Shrinkage here.
“have been attempting to help the man for years”
I don’t think the treatment has been very successful.
Yeah, I think everyone sees that very clearly. Your story is not true. But go ahead and stand by it.
Were you counseling a drug addict, or were you playing? ‘Cause if this is some close friend with whom you were being very silly, and you weren’t a middle-aged pastor, OK... I’ve had friends in the trunk of my car before.
The fact that he was naked crosses some boundaries I never crossed... But OK...
Such games with some drug addict who was seeking help... That’s just wrong. That’s not truly consensual in any way.
When you’re a man and you have a naked man tied up in your car with you, it’s hard to get people to believe that “it’s not what it looks like”.
>> This story is shocking. Who knew that AOL still is around? <<
LOL. Now THAT’S funny.
He’s not dead, so it’s not what it looks like. But it still is probably very, very wrong.
question is, who tied him up?
Well, they ALL need plenty of “counseling” but this guy is not the right one to provide it....
Just heard his voice on the radio
At least it wasn’t a naked boy.
Maybe it was back when he started ‘counseling’ him...
Why are they upset? I thought they like to be stuffed and cuffed?
Yep, been there myself.
The greatest enemy to the Church in America is the Church in America.
Yeah, let's not jump to conclusions.
The church I grew up in, now known as the ECC, is debating inclusion of the LBGTADFLJPOIREWOIDLKALKJGLAKDJG movement, because some of the clergy and members have friends who are LBGTADFLJPOIREWOIDLKALKJGLAKDJG and they want to include them instead of exclude. Personally, I think the church should be a safe harbor away from LBGTADFLJPOIREWOIDLKALKJGLAKDJG lifestyle, where those who have fallen prey to LBGTADFLJPOIREWOIDLKALKJGLAKDJG and want to escape can escape and be forgiven if they really want out of LBGTADFLJPOIREWOIDLKALKJGLAKDJG life.
